"Great to see that the resort actively improves lift system .I normally ski in the Alberg but this area rivals it with long cruisy runs intermingled with steeper options and easily accessible off piste options. Will be returning to explore further."

"Great skiing but perhaps not ideal for beginners (most blue runs were great but some were mire red than blue). Beautiful location and great apres ski bars and restaurants. If it's not your first trip definitely worth a visit. Coach transfers were under 2 hours and scenic pleasure."

Après Ski in Saalbach-Hinterglemm

One of the most infamous bars is Hinethag Alm where the party starts and continues down into town to Bauer’s Schi-Alm, an old cow shed with attached umbrella bars. The uniquely renovated medieval jail that is now Zum Turm is an interesting place to have a drink after a long day. The nightlife is much quieter in Hinterglemm but Hinterhag is a fun, goat-themed bar that is a great place to enjoy a drink off the mountain.
